This morning was the night to catch the Milky Way - that meant getting up at 0200 - preparing two big cups of
coffee and driving 40 minutes to Mesa Arch. Thinking that 0300 was a bit early and I should be alone I was
surprised that the parking lot had over 15 cars - wow. I collected all my gear - and coffee and began the hike to
the arch.
